Is Zoely Contraceptive Pill Effective In Preventing Pregnancy?
Question: I was >24hrs late taking the "zoely" contraceptive pill, i was at day 18 so took the pill as soon as i remembered but did not use extra protection. Is this ok?
Brief Answer:
Its ok
Detailed Answer:
Hi dear,
I have gone through your question and understand your concerns.
Yes, it is ok and the contraceptive efficacy of the pill is maintained if you have taken the pill as soon as you remembered on the next day.
Missing one pill in the second half of the cycle do not requires you to take the extra precaution.
I suggest you not to worry.
Hope you found the answer helpful.
